TMZ has posted video footage of TOOL drummer Danny Carey’s recent arrest for an alleged assault Sunday night (December 12) at the Kansas City airport. You can watch the clip below.
In the video, the TOOL drummer can be heard repeatedly asking one of the officers, “Who did I assault?” and stating, “I just want to get the fuck out of here.” The two officers can then be seen pushing Carey against a wall and slapping cuffs around the drummer’s wrists, with one of them telling him to “quit resisting now.”
According to TMZ, law enforcement sources say Carey allegedly assaulted an employee who worked security at the airport by shoving two fingers in the worker’s chest and repeatedly yelling, “You’re a fucking f****t!”
The 60-year-old musician was booked for misdemeanor assault and was released on bond. The police report is being forwarded to prosecutors for review, and potential charges will follow. He could be hit with a fine for the incident up to $13,900.
A spokesperson for the Kansas City Aviation Department told Rolling Stone: “Regarding the request for body and dash cam video, our police force does not have this technology. The police report has been forwarded to the prosecutor’s office for review.”
